What does this mean?

Dear Sheryl,

Thank you for your request. Is there a sort of label or hallmark for example in the neck of the doll?

With best regards,
Georg

Dear Sheryl,

Thank you for the additional images and your patience. The presented object is a doll made by the German company Simon & Halbig around 1910 or later. It has a biscuit porcelain head which has the producer hallmark in the neck. Simon & Halbig was established 1869 and is one of the oldest producers for biscuit porcelain dolls, also this company was a component supplier for other doll manufacturers. The dress of this doll is modern also the hair and other little details seem to be restored.
This piece is in good condition and there are no serious damages visible.
An estimation would be between 200 to 400 USD.
This estimation is based on actual recent past recorded auction sales of comparables. Retail "asking prices" can be higher and vary.

With best regards,
Georg
